REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Jason Simpson, City Manager
Prepared by: Barbara Leibold, City Attorney
Date: September 8, 2026
Subject: Purchase of Real Property Located on Sannelle Street for Pope Circle Drainage Project (APN 378-254-009)
Recommendation
Approve the purchase of a vacant parcel of real property located on Sannelle Street for the Pope Circle Drainage Project for a purchase price of $64,000, plus closing costs, and authorize the City Manager to execute the Vacant Land Purchase Agreement and Joint Escrow Instructions and such other ancillary documents as may be necessary to complete the purchase, in such final form as approved by the City Attorney.

Background

The project proposes to construct a stormwater basin with a submersible pump and storm drain force main to alleviate flooding in the area. The property is an unimproved lot. This new alignment will shorten the drainage line by 500 ft., and the acquisition will provide a more efficient design and lower construction costs.

Discussion
Following good faith negotiations, the property owner has agreed to convey the property to the City for $64,000, plus closing costs.

Pope Circle Drainage Project Land Purchase

Fiscal Impact
The purchase price of $64,000, plus closing costs, will be paid from available CIP funds out of drainage fees.

When requested by Contractor, extensions to the time period(s) specified may be approved in writing by the City Manager.
c. Term and Compliance with Task/Work Order System. Unless earlier terminated as provided elsewhere in this Agreement, this Agreement shall continue in full force

and effect for a period commencing on September 8, 2026 and ending June 30, 2027. The City may, at its sole discretion, extend the term of this Agreement on a 12-month basis not to exceed 2 additional twelve (12) month renewal terms by giving written notice thereof to Contractor not less than thirty (30) days before the end of the contract term, such notice to be exercised by the City Manager.

Contractor hereby agrees and acknowledges that any and all work or services performed pursuant to this Agreement shall be based upon the issuance of a Task/Work Order by the City. Contractor acknowledges that it is not guaranteed any minimum or specific amount of work or services as all work or services shall be authorized through a Task/Work Order issued by the City.

3. Compensation. Compensation to be paid to Contractor shall be in accordance with the fees set forth in Contractor's Proposal (Exhibit A), which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference. In no event shall Contractor's annual compensation exceed Thirty-Five Thousand ($35,000) without additional written authorization from the City.

Notwithstanding any provision of Contractor's Proposal to the contrary, out of pocket expenses set forth in Exhibit A shall be reimbursed at cost without an inflator or administrative charge.

Payment by City under this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of defects, even if such defects were known to the City at the time of payment.

4. Method of Payment. Contractor shall promptly submit billings to the City describing the services and related work performed during the preceding month to the extent that such services and related work were performed. Contractor’s bills shall be segregated by project task, if applicable, such that the City receives a separate accounting for work done on each individual task for which Contractor provides services. Contractor’s bills shall include a brief description of the services performed, the date the services were performed, the number of hours spent and by whom, and a description of any reimbursable expenditures. City shall pay Contractor no later than forty-five (45) days after receipt of the monthly invoice by City staff.

5. Background Checks. At any time during the term of this Agreement, the City reserves the right to make an independent investigation into the background of Contractor’s personnel who perform work required by this Agreement, including but not limited to their references, character, address history, past employment, education, social security number validation, and criminal or police records, for the purpose of confirming that such personnel are lawfully employed, qualified to provide the subject service or pose a risk to the safety of persons or property in and around the vicinity of where the services will be rendered or City Hall. If the City makes a reasonable determination that any of Contractor’s prospective or then current personnel is deemed objectionable, then the City may notify Contractor of the same. Contractor shall not use that personnel to perform work required by this Agreement, and if necessary, shall replace him or her with a suitable worker.

6. Suspension or Termination.
a. The City may at any time, for any reason, with or without cause, suspend or terminate this Agreement, or any portion hereof, by serving upon the Contractor at least ten (10) days prior written notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Contractor shall immediately cease all work under this Agreement, unless the notice provides otherwise. If the City suspends or terminates a portion of this Agreement such suspension or termination shall not make void or invalidate the remainder of this Agreement.

b. In the event this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section, the City shall pay to Contractor the actual value of the work performed up to the time of termination, provided that the work performed is of value to the City. Upon termination of the Agreement pursuant to this Section, the Contractor will submit an invoice to the City, pursuant to Section entitled “Method of Payment” herein.

7. Plans, Studies, Documents.
a. Ownership of Documents. All plans, studies, documents and other writings prepared by and for Contractor, its officers, employees and agents and subcontractors in the course of implementing this Agreement, except working notepad internal documents, shall become the property of the City upon payment to Contractor for such work, and the City shall have the sole right to use such materials in its discretion without further compensation to Contractor or to any other party. Contractor shall, at Contractor’s expense, provide such reports, plans, studies, documents and other writings to City upon written request. City shall have sole determination of the public’s rights to documents under the Public Records Act, and any thirdparty requests of Contractor shall be immediately referred to City, without any other actions by Contractor.
b. Licensing of Intellectual Property. This Agreement creates a nonexclusive and perpetual license for City to copy, use, modify, reuse, or sublicense any and all copyrights, designs, and other intellectual property embodied in plans, specifications, studies, drawings, estimates, and other documents or works of authorship fixed in any tangible medium of expression, including but not limited to, physical drawings or data magnetically or otherwise recorded on computer diskettes, which are prepared or caused to be prepared by Contractor under this Agreement ("Documents & Data"). Contractor shall require that all subcontractors agree in writing that City is granted a nonexclusive and perpetual license for any Documents & Data the subcontractor prepares under this Agreement. Contractor represents and warrants that Contractor has the legal right to license any and all Documents & Data. Contractor makes no such representation and warranty in regard to Documents & Data which were prepared by design professionals other than Contractor or provided to Contractor by the City. City shall not be limited in any way in its use of the Documents & Data at any time, provided that any such use not within the purposes intended by this Agreement shall be at City’s sole risk. c. Confidentiality. All ideas, memoranda, specifications, plans, procedures, drawings, descriptions, computer program data, input record data, written information, and other Documents & Data either created by or provided to Contractor in connection with the performance of this Agreement shall be held confidential by Contractor. Such materials shall not, without the prior written consent of City, be used by Contractor for any purposes other than the performance of the services under this Agreement. Nor shall such materials be disclosed to any person or entity not connected with the performance of the services under this Agreement. Nothing furnished to Contractor which is otherwise known to Contractor or is generally known, or has become known, to the related industry shall be deemed confidential. Contractor shall not use City’s name or insignia, photographs relating to project for which Contractor’s services are rendered, or any publicity pertaining to the Contractor’s services under this Agreement in any magazine, trade paper, newspaper, television or radio production or other similar medium without the prior written consent of City.

8. Contractor’s Books and Records.
a. Contractor shall maintain any and all ledgers, books of account, invoices, vouchers, canceled checks, and other records or documents evidencing or relating to charges for services, or expenditures and disbursements charged to City for a minimum period of three (3) years, or for any longer period required by law, from the date of final payment to Contractor to this Agreement.
b. Contractor shall maintain all documents and records which demonstrate performance under this Agreement for a minimum period of three (3) years, or for any longer period required by law, from the date of termination or completion of this Agreement. c. Any records or documents required to be maintained pursuant to this Agreement shall be made available for inspection or audit, at any time during regular business hours, upon written request by the City Manager, City Attorney, City Auditor or a designated representative of these officers. Copies of such documents shall be provided to the City for inspection at City Hall when it is practical to do so. Otherwise, unless an alternative is mutually agreed upon, the records shall be available at Contractor’s address indicated for receipt of notices in this Agreement.
d. Where City has reason to believe that such records or documents may be lost or discarded due to dissolution, disbandment or termination of Contractor’s business, City may, by written request by any of the above-named officers, require that custody of the records be given to the City and that the records and documents be maintained in City Hall. Access to such records and documents shall be granted to any party authorized by Contractor, Contractor’s representatives, or Contractor’s successor-in-interest.

9. Independent Contractor.
a. Contractor is and shall at all times remain as to the City a wholly independent contractor pursuant to California Labor Code Section 3353. The personnel performing the services under this Agreement on behalf of Contractor shall at all times be under Contractor’s exclusive direction and control. Neither City nor any of its officers, employees, or agents shall have control over the conduct of Contractor or any of Contractor’s officers, employees, or agents, except as set forth in this Agreement. Contractor shall not at any time or in any manner represent that it or any of its officers, employees, or agents are in any manner officers, employees, or agents of the City. Contractor shall not incur or have the power to incur any debt, obligation, or liability whatsoever against City, or bind City in any manner. b. Notwithstanding any other federal, state and local laws, codes, ordinances and regulations to the contrary and except for the fees paid to Contractor as provided in the Agreement, Contractor and any of its employees, agents, and subcontractors providing service under this Agreement shall not qualify for or become entitled to, and hereby agree to waive any claims to, any compensation, benefit, or any incident of employment by City, including but not limited to eligibility to enroll in PERS as an employee of City and entitlement to any contribution to be paid by City for employer contribution and/or employee contributions for PERS benefits.

10. PERS Eligibility Indemnification. In the event that Contractor or any employee, agent, or subcontractor of Contractor providing services under this Agreement claims or is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or the California Public Employees Retirement System (PERS) to be eligible for enrollment in PERS as an employee of the City, Contractor shall

indemnify, defend, and hold harmless City for the payment of any employee and/or employer contributions for PERS benefits on behalf of Contractor or its employees, agents, or subcontractors, as well as for the payment of any penalties and interest on such contributions, which would otherwise be the responsibility of City.

11. Interests of Contractor. Contractor (including principals, associates and professional employees) covenants and represents that it does not now have any investment or interest in real property and shall not acquire any interest, direct or indirect, in the area covered by this Agreement or any other source of income, interest in real property or investment which would be affected in any manner or degree by the performance of Contractor’s services hereunder. Contractor further covenants and represents that in the performance of its duties hereunder no person having any such interest shall perform any services under this Agreement.

Contractor is not a designated employee within the meaning of the Political Reform Act because Contractor:
a. will conduct research and arrive at conclusions with respect to his/her rendition of information, advice, recommendation or counsel independent of the control and direction of the City or of any City official, other than normal agreement monitoring; and b. possesses no authority with respect to any City decision beyond rendition of information, advice, recommendation or counsel. (FPPC Reg. 18700(a)(2).)

12. Professional Ability of Contractor. City has relied upon the professional training and ability of Contractor to perform the services hereunder as a material inducement to enter into this Agreement. Contractor shall therefore provide properly skilled professional and technical personnel to perform all services under this Agreement. All work performed by Contractor under this Agreement shall be in accordance with applicable legal requirements and shall meet the standard of quality ordinarily to be expected of competent professionals in Contractor’s field of expertise.

13. Compliance with Laws.
a. Contractor shall comply with all local, state and federal laws and regulations applicable to the services required hereunder, including any rule, regulation or bylaw governing the conduct or performance of Contractor and/or its employees, officers, or board members.
b. Contractor represents that it has obtained and will maintain at all times during the term of this Agreement all professional and/or business licenses, certifications and/or permits necessary for performing the services described in this Agreement, including a City business license.

14. Licenses. Contractor represents and warrants to City that it has the licenses, permits, qualifications, insurance and approvals of whatsoever nature which are legally required of Contractor to practice its profession. Contractor represents and warrants to City that Contractor shall, at its sole cost and expense, keep in effect or obtain at all times during the term of this Agreement, any licenses, permits, insurance and approvals which are legally required of Contractor to practice its profession. Contractor shall maintain a City of Lake Elsinore business license.

15. Indemnity. Contractor shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the City and its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers from and against any and all losses, liability, claims, suits, actions, damages, and causes of action arising out of any personal injury, bodily injury, loss of life, or damage to property, or any violation of any federal, state, or municipal law or ordinance, to the extent caused, in whole or in part, by the willful misconduct or negligent acts or omissions of Contractor or its employees, subcontractors, or agents, by acts for which they could be held strictly liable, or by the quality or character of their work. The foregoing obligation of Contractor shall not apply when (1) the injury, loss of life, damage to property, or violation of law arises from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the City or its officers, employees, agents, or volunteers and (2) the actions of Contractor or its employees, subcontractor, or agents have contributed in no part to the injury, loss of life, damage to property, or violation of law. It is understood that the duty of Contractor to indemnify and hold harmless includes the duty to defend as set forth in Section 2778 of the California Civil Code. Acceptance by City of insurance certificates and endorsements required under this Agreement does not relieve Contractor from liability under this indemnification and hold harmless clause. This indemnification and hold harmless clause shall apply to any damages or claims for damages whether or not such insurance policies shall have been determined to apply. By execution of this Agreement, Contractor acknowledges and agrees to the provisions of this Section and that it is a material element of consideration.

16. Insurance Requirements.
a. Insurance. Contractor, at Contractor’s own cost and expense, shall procure and maintain, for the duration of the contract, unless modified by the City’s Risk Manager, the following insurance policies.
i. Workers’ Compensation Coverage. Contractor shall maintain Workers’ Compensation Insurance and Employer’s Liability Insurance for his/her employees in accordance with the laws of the State of California. In addition, Contractor shall require each subcontractor to similarly maintain Workers’ Compensation Insurance and Employer’s Liability Insurance in accordance with the laws of the State of California for all of the subcontractor’s employees. Any notice of cancellation or non-renewal of all Workers’ Compensation policies must be received by the City at least thirty (30) days prior to such change. The insurer shall agree to waive all rights of subrogation against City, its officers, agents, employees and volunteers for losses arising from work performed by Contractor for City. In the event that Contractor is exempt from Worker’s Compensation Insurance and Employer’s Liability Insurance for his/her employees in accordance with the laws of the State of California, Contractor shall submit to the City a Certificate of Exemption from Workers Compensation Insurance in a form approved by the City Attorney.
ii. General Liability Coverage. Contractor shall maintain commercial general liability insurance in an amount not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury and property damage. If a commercial general liability insurance form or other form with a general aggregate limit is used, either the general aggregate limit shall apply separately to the work to be performed under this Agreement or the general aggregate limit shall be at least twice the required occurrence limit. Required commercial general liability coverage shall be at least as broad as Insurance Services Office Commercial General Liability occurrence form CG 0001 (ed. 11/88) or Insurance Services Office form number GL 0002 (ed. 1/73) covering comprehensive General Liability and Insurance Services Office form number GL 0404

covering Broad Form Comprehensive General Liability. No endorsement may be attached limiting the coverage.
iii. Automobile Liability Coverage. Contractor shall maintain automobile liability insurance covering bodily injury and property damage for all activities of the Contractor arising out of or in connection with the work to be performed under this Agreement, including coverage for owned, hired and non-owned vehicles, in an amount of not less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) combined single limit for each occurrence.

Automobile liability coverage must be at least as broad as Insurance Services Office Automobile Liability form CA 0001 (ed. 12/90) Code 1 (“any auto”). No endorsement may be attached limiting the coverage.
iv. Professional Liability Coverage. Contractor shall maintain professional errors and omissions liability insurance appropriate for Contractor’s profession for protection against claims alleging negligent acts, errors or omissions which may arise from Contractor’s services under this Agreement, whether such services are provided by the Contractor or by its employees, subcontractors, or sub Contractors. The amount of this insurance shall not be less than one million dollars ($1,000,000) on a claims-made annual aggregate basis, or a combined single limit per occurrence basis. b. Endorsements. Each general liability and automobile liability insurance policy shall be with insurers possessing a Best’s rating of no less than A:VII and shall be endorsed with the following specific language:
i. Notwithstanding any inconsistent statement in any required insurance policies or any subsequent endorsements attached thereto, the protection offered by all policies, except for Workers’ Compensation, shall bear an endorsement whereby it is provided that, the City and its officers, employees, servants, volunteers and agents and independent contractors, including without limitation, the City Manager and City Attorney, are named as additional insureds. Additional insureds shall be entitled to the full benefit of all insurance policies in the same manner and to the same extent as any other insureds and there shall be no limitation to the benefits conferred upon them other than policy limits to coverages.
ii. This policy shall be considered primary insurance as respects the City, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers. Any insurance maintained by the City, including any self-insured retention the City may have, shall be considered excess insurance only and shall not contribute with it. iii. This insurance shall act for each insured and additional insured as though a separate policy had been written for each, except with respect to the limits of liability of the insuring company.
iv. The insurer waives all rights of subrogation against the City, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees or agents. v. Any failure to comply with reporting provisions of the policies shall not affect coverage provided to the City, its elected or appointed officers, officials, employees, agents or volunteers.

vi. The insurance provided by this Policy shall not be suspended, voided, canceled, or reduced in coverage or in limits except after thirty (30) days written notice has been received by the City.
c. Deductibles and Self-Insured Retentions. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions must be declared to and approved by the City. At the City’s option, Contractor shall demonstrate financial capability for payment of such deductibles or self-insured retentions. d. Certificates of Insurance. Contractor shall provide certificates of insurance with original endorsements to City as evidence of the insurance coverage required herein.

Certificates of such insurance shall be filed with the City on or before commencement of performance of this Agreement. Current certification of insurance shall be kept on file with the City at all times during the term of this Agreement.

17. Notices. Any notice required to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and either served personally or sent prepaid, first class mail. Any such notice shall be addressed to the other party at the address set forth below. Notice shall be deemed communicated within 48 hours from the time of mailing if mailed as provided in this section.

18. Assignment and Subcontracting. The parties recognize that a substantial inducement to City for entering into this Agreement is the professional reputation, experience and competence of Contractor and the subcontractors listed in Exhibit B. Contractor shall be fully responsible to City for all acts or omissions of any subcontractors. Assignments of any or all rights, duties or obligations of the Contractor under this Agreement will be permitted only with the express consent of the City. Contractor shall not subcontract any portion of the work to be performed under this Agreement except as provided in Exhibit B without the written authorization of the City. If City consents to such subcontract, Contractor shall be fully responsible to City for all acts or omissions of those subcontractors. Nothing in this Agreement shall create any contractual relationship between City and any subcontractor nor shall it create any obligation on the part of the City to pay or to see to the payment of any monies due to any such subcontractor other than as otherwise is required by law.

19. Waiver. Waiver of a breach or default under this Agreement shall not constitute a continuing waiver of a subsequent breach of the same or any other provision under this Agreement.

20. Litigation Expenses and Attorneys’ Fees. If either party to this Agreement commences any legal action against the other party arising out of this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable litigation expenses, including court costs, expert witness fees, discovery expenses, and attorneys’ fees.

21. Mediation. The parties agree to make a good faith attempt to resolve any disputes arising out of this Agreement through mediation prior to commencing litigation. The parties shall mutually agree upon the mediator and share the costs of mediation equally. If the parties are unable to agree upon a mediator, the dispute shall be submitted to JAMS or its successor in interest. JAMS shall provide the parties with the names of five qualified mediators. Each party shall have the option to strike two of the five mediators selected by JAMS and thereafter the mediator remaining shall hear the dispute. If the dispute remains unresolved after mediation, either party may commence litigation.

22. Prohibited Interests. Contractor maintains and warrants that it has not employed nor retained any company or person, other than a bona fide employee working solely for Contractor, to solicit or secure this Agreement. Further, Contractor warrants that it has not paid nor has it agreed to pay any company or person, other than a bona fide employee working solely for Contractor, any fee, commission, percentage, brokerage fee, gift or other consideration contingent upon or resulting from the award or making of this Agreement. For breach or violation of this warranty, City shall have the right to rescind this Agreement without liability. For the term of this Agreement, no member, officer or employee of City, during the term of his or her service with City, shall have any direct interest in this Agreement, or obtain any present or anticipated material benefit arising therefrom.

23. Equal Opportunity Employment. Contractor represents that it is an equal opportunity employer and it shall not discriminate against any subcontractor, employee or applicant for employment because of race, religion, color, national origin, handicap, ancestry, sex or age. Such non-discrimination shall include, but not be limited to, all activities related to initial employment, upgrading, demotion, transfer, recruitment or recruitment advertising, layoff or termination.

24. Prevailing Wages. Contractor is aware of the requirements of California Labor Code Section 1720, et seq., and 1770, et seq., as well as California Code of Regulations, Title 8, Section 16000, et seq., ("Prevailing Wage Laws"), which require the payment of prevailing wage rates and the performance of other requirements on "public works" and "maintenance" projects.

Contractor agrees to fully comply with all applicable federal and state labor laws (including, without limitation, if applicable, the Prevailing Wage Laws). It is agreed by the parties that, in connection with the Work or Services provided pursuant to this Agreement, Contractor shall bear all risks of payment or non-payment of prevailing wages under California law, and Contractor hereby agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold the City, and its officials, officers, employees, agents, and volunteers, free and harmless from any claim or liability arising out of any failure or alleged failure to comply with the Prevailing Wage Laws. The foregoing indemnity shall survive termination of this Agreement.

25. Severability. If any term or portion of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or otherwise unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

26. Controlling Law Venue. This Agreement and all matters relating to it shall be governed by the laws of the State of California and any action brought relating to this Agreement shall be held exclusively in a state court in the County of Riverside.

27. Authority to Enter Agreement. Contractor has all requisite power and authority to conduct its business and to execute, deliver, and perform the Agreement. Each party warrants that the individuals who have signed this Agreement have the legal power, right, and authority to make this Agreement and to bind each respective party. The City Manager is authorized to enter into an amendment or otherwise take action on behalf of the City to make the following modifications to the Agreement: (a) a name change; (b) grant extensions of time; (c) nonmonetary changes in the scope of services; and/or (d) suspend or terminate the Agreement.

28. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall constitute one and the same instrument and shall become binding upon the parties when at least one copy hereof shall have been signed by both parties hereto. In approving this Agreement, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart.

29. Entire Agreement; Incorporation; Conflict. This Agreement contains the entire understanding between the parties relating to the obligations described herein. All prior or contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and statements, oral or written, are superseded in total by this Agreement and shall be of no further force or effect. Contractor’s Proposal is incorporated only for the description of the scope of services and/or the schedule of performance and no other terms and conditions from such proposal shall apply to this Agreement unless specifically agreed to in writing. In the event of conflict, this Agreement shall take precedence over those contained in the Contractor’s Proposal.

30. Amendments. This Agreement may be modified or amended only by a written document executed by both Contractor and City and approved as to form by the City Attorney. [Signatures on next page]

TERMS OF ENGAGEMENT
TO OUR CLIENTS:

Fennemore’ s standard terms of engagement for providing legal services as described in the attached letter are summarized below. These terms (the “ Terms of Engagement”) are an integral part of our agreement to provide you with legal services. These Terms of Engagement, together with the engagement letter to which these Terms of Engagement are attached, may be referred to as the “Engagement Agreement.” Please contact us promptly after reading these terms if you have any questions.

1. Who is Our Client? Except as otherwise expressly agreed in writing, we represent only the person(s) or entity(ies) identified in our engagement letter (referred to herein as “ you” or Client”). Unless specifically stated in that letter, our representation of you does not extend to any of your affiliates, employees, officers, shareholders, or any entities in which you own an interest.

If you are a partnership or limited liability company, our representation does not extend to the individual partners or members of that entity. If you are a trade association, our representation does not extend to members of the trade association. If you are an individual, our representation does not include your spouse, siblings, other family members, or any entity in which you hold an ownership interest. In addition, the advice and communications which we render on your behalf are not intended to be disseminated to or relied upon by anyone else without our written consent.

If Client is an entity, we will look to the managers, partners or officers, as appropriate, of the entity for our instructions regarding the legal services to be performed, as well as for the resolution of any issues that may arise in the course of the services. California Rule of Professional Conduct Rule 1.13 (“ Rule 1.13”) addresses legal representation of an entity or organization and certain of its owners and employees. A copy of Rule 1.13 is available here for your reference:
https:// www.calbar. ca.gov/Portals/ 0/documents/ rules/Rule_1.13-Exec_Summary- Redline. pdf

2. Conflicts and Consent Relating to Future Adverse Representation in Unrelated Matters.
a) To assist in avoiding representing parties with conflicts of interests, we maintain a computerized conflict of interest index. The Firm will not represent any party with an interest that may be adverse to that of a person or entity included in the index without an examination to determine whether a conflict of interest would actually be created. To allow us to perform a conflict check, you represent that you have identified for us all persons or entities that are or may become involved in this matter, including all persons and entities that are affiliated with you and the other involved or potentially involved parties (such as parent corporations, subsidiaries and other affiliates, officers, directors and principals). Nonetheless, unless this Engagement Docusign Envelope ID: CEA5EE24- 09D9-4C52- 8733-6CAC68448443 City of Lake Elsinore
Jason Simpson, City Manager
March 9, 2026

63643749. 2
Agreement states otherwise, the Firm’s only Client is the individual or entity identified as such in the engagement letter. You also agree that you will promptly notify us if you become aware of any other person or entities that are or may become involved in this matter. b) Our firm provides a wide array of legal services, including administrative, legislative, litigation, and transactional services, to many other companies and individuals. It is possible that one or more of our present or future clients will have disputes or transactions with you during the course of our representation of you or that one or more of them will ask us to advocate a change in law or policy that might have a direct or indirect adverse impact upon your interests. You agree that we may represent any existing or new clients in any matter that is unrelated to our representation of you, including matters that are directly adverse to you or in which a policy we advocate might have a direct or indirect adverse impact upon your interests.

We agree, however, that your prospective consent to conflicting representation set forth in the preceding sentence shall not apply in any instance where, as a result of our representation of you, we have obtained confidential information that, if known to our other client, could be used in the matter adverse to you and to your material disadvantage and we have not taken steps to screen such information from the lawyers representing the other client in the matter adverse to you prior to such lawyers learning any such information or where we are otherwise precluded from undertaking the representation under applicable ethical rules that govern lawyers. You hereby consent to the Firm taking any reasonable measures it deems appropriate to protect your confidential information from such disclosure or use, including the creation of a formal “ ethical screen” in accordance with the Firm’s internal procedures for implementing such measures. Your alternative to giving this consent to our future representation of other clients is to retain any other counsel of your choosing to represent you in this matter, and you acknowledge that the Firm would not agree to represent you with respect to the matter covered by this Engagement Agreement without your consent and agreement as described in this paragraph. c) In similar engagement letters with many of our other clients, we may ask for similar agreements to preserve our ability to represent you. You agree that we may disclose the fact of our representation of you, without disclosing the nature of such representation, to other current or future clients that may be adverse to you for the purpose of obtaining such other clients’ consent to any conflict of interest that may be presented by our representation of you and such other client. We will not disclose to the other client any confidential information pertaining to our representation of you.
d) If we have indicated in the engagement letter above that we currently represent one or more other parties in unrelated matters adverse to your interests or if in an unrelated matter we currently represent one or more other parties whose interests are adverse to yours in this matter, and you have decided you want us to represent you, knowing we represent Docusign Envelope ID: CEA5EE24- 09D9-4C52- 8733-6CAC68448443 City of Lake Elsinore

63643749. 2
such other client(s) adverse to you in other matters, we have required you to sign the attached Conflicts of Interest/Consent and Waiver,” which is incorporated herein as though fully set forth. e) If we have actual knowledge or reasonably should know that in this matter 1) another party’s lawyer is a spouse, parent, child, sibling, living with, or has an intimate personal relationship with your lawyer, or (2) another party’ s lawyer is a client of your lawyer or any other Firm lawyer, then we have disclosed that relationship to you in writing in the above engagement letter as required by California Rule of Professional Conduct 1.7(c). Your lawyer believes you will receive competent and diligent representation in this matter. If you are aware that any relationship described above exists, please advise us. Otherwise, you agree that we may represent or be represented by lawyers or law firms representing clients whose interests are adverse to yours in unrelated matters.

3. Fees. We encourage you to discuss with us at any time any questions you might have concerning our billing procedures. We charge fees that are reasonable based on criteria for reasonableness set forth in the applicable Rules of Professional Conduct, which include the time, effort and skill required to perform the services properly, the novelty and complexity of the issues, time constraints imposed by the Client or by the nature of the matter, the degree of risk imposed on the lawyer, the amount involved and the results achieved. As a result, fees based on our hourly rates are subject to adjustment to reflect what we believe to be a reasonable charge for tasks performed on your behalf. Standard hourly rates may change periodically, and any changes will be reflected in our monthly billing statements.

4. Billing and Costs.
a) We ordinarily bill monthly. We request that you review any billing statements promptly upon receipt to determine if you have any questions or comments. Our billing statements are due and payable upon receipt. We ask and expect payment of our statements on a current basis, as delayed payment adds to our overall costs of providing services. Interest at the rate of 10 percent per annum will be assessed on all amounts not paid within 30 days of the date of the statement. In no event will the interest exceed the maximum rate allowable by law on delinquent payments. We bill for all costs advanced for items such as filing fees, expert witness fees and travel expenses. Bills will also include charges for other costs, such as long distance telephone charges, outgoing telecopier charges ($.75 per page for transmission plus long distance charges), document reproduction costs ($. 20 per page), computerized research services ( i.e., Westlaw or Lexis), eDiscovery and litigation management (including, without limitation, costs of third-party eDiscovery and litigation management platforms, software, data storage, service fees, and other charges), messenger charges, and under certain circumstances, secretarial overtime, including related overhead in appropriate instances. While our charges for these services are measured by use, they do not always reflect our actual out-of-pocket costs. Some expense charges Docusign Envelope ID: CEA5EE24- 09D9-4C52- 8733-6CAC68448443 City of Lake Elsinore
Jason Simpson, City Manager
March 9, 2026

63643749. 2
include an approximation of applicable overhead incurred by the Firm as itemized to the particular expense. For many of these items, the true cost of providing the service is difficult to establish, and in some instances, the amounts charged are estimates which may exceed the actual cost to the Firm. We would be pleased to discuss the specific schedule of charges with you and to answer any questions you may have. Any changes in these routine charges will be reflected in our monthly billing statements.
b) We make every effort to include disbursements in the statement for the month in which the disbursements are incurred. Some disbursements, however, are not available to us until sometime after the month in which the service related to the charge was performed, in which case either the charge will be billed in a subsequent month, a supplemental statement will be prepared, or an estimated amount will be included in the initial billing and an adjustment made when the actual disbursement information is available.
c) We may require and you agree to pay certain large disbursements, such as appraisal fees and expert witness fees, directly to the third party provider. d) We look to the Client for payment regardless of whether the Client is insured to cover any particular risk. From time to time, we may agree to assist clients in pursuing third parties for recovery of attorneys’ fees and other charges resulting from our services. These situations include payment of fees under contracts, statutes or insurance policies. It remains the Client’s obligation to pay all amounts due to us upon receiving our statement. e) It is the Firm’ s policy that, if an invoice remains unpaid for more than 90 days, then, absent extraordinary circumstances and subject to legal ethics constraints, we reserve the right to terminate representation, and you hereby authorize us to withdraw from all representation of you. Any unapplied deposits will be applied to outstanding balances. Generally, the Firm will not recommence its representation or accept new work from you until your account is brought current and a new deposit for fees and costs, in an amount that the Firm determines, is paid to us.

5. Funds Deposited with Fennemore.
a) Retainers. We frequently obtain an advance retainer from new clients, and from existing clients under certain circumstances, to secure the payment of our fees and recoverable expenses. The amount and terms of the retainer arrangement are determined after consultation with the billing attorney. It occasionally may be appropriate to require an additional retainer after the commencement of the engagement, depending on payment history or on the scope of the work. The retainer will be held in a general Firm trust account in California, with interest payable to the California IOLTA as required by California Rule of Professional Conduct 1.15(a).

Although we will typically hold the retainer in trust and apply it to our final invoice, we reserve Docusign Envelope ID: CEA5EE24- 09D9-4C52- 8733-6CAC68448443 City of Lake Elsinore

the right to apply the retainer to our fees and expenses as we earn or incur them from time to time over the course of the engagement, in which case we may ask you to replenish the advance retainer at the amount of the initial retainer or some other amount. Retainer disbursements will be detailed on our billing statements sent to you. You will be invoiced for replenishment of the amount withdrawn. Non-replenishment of the amount requested within 30 days plus amounts then due may be deemed a breach of this Engagement Agreement. Any portion of the retainer unused after full payment of all amounts due to us will be returned to you promptly upon completion of our services. Any amounts due to us in excess of the retainer will be billed to you. b) Other Funds. Occasionally, funds due to the Client will be deposited with Fennemore for the benefit of the Client. Absent other agreement with the Client, such funds will be deposited in a general Firm trust account as described in paragraph 5(a) above.

6. Estimates. Any estimates of anticipated fees that we provide, for budgeting purposes or otherwise, are, due to the uncertainties involved, necessarily only an approximation of potential fees. Such estimates are not a maximum or minimum fee quotation.

7. Opinions. During the course of our representation of you, we may express opinions or beliefs concerning the matter on which we are working or various courses of action and the results that might be anticipated. Any such statement is intended to be an expression of opinion only, and should not be construed by you as a promise or guarantee.

8. Client Responsibilities. Recognizing that we cannot effectively represent you without your cooperation and assistance, you agree to cooperate with us and to provide promptly all information known or available to you that is relevant to the subject matter of our representation or otherwise requested by us, including but not limited to full and timely access to any documents or information that we consider to be necessary or important and any changes in the name, address, telephone number, contact person, e-mail address, state of domicile or other relevant changes regarding you or your business. Failure to provide requested information could reduce the effectiveness of our representation and could lead to our withdrawal from our representation of you.

It is essential that we be able to reach you when needed. You agree to promptly notify us of any changes in your contact information.

If you affiliate with, acquire, or are acquired by or merge with another company or otherwise become aware of information that may evidence the existence of a conflict of interest that was not disclosed by you at the beginning of the engagement, you agree to provide us with sufficient advance notice to permit us to determine whether such affiliation, acquisition or merger creates a conflict of interest between any of our clients and the other party to such affiliation, acquisition or merger.

9. Credit Checks. Depending on the nature of our representation of you, we may from time to time request information from credit reporting agencies for the purpose of verifying or considering your credit status. Your engagement of Fennemore will constitute your authorization to perform such credit checks.

10. Representation of Lawyers.
a) If you are not a Lawyer. We sometimes represent lawyers and law firms, and we are sometimes represented by other lawyers and law firms, in matters unrelated to our representation of you. Because we do not believe these representations will materially limit our responsibilities to you or will otherwise adversely affect our representation of you, we do not believe these representations present conflicts of interest, including where any such firm also represents a client whose interests are opposed to yours in either a litigation or transactional setting.

You consent to our representation of you despite this Firm’s representation of or by other lawyers or firms. See paragraph 2(e) above.
b) If you are a Lawyer. Our work on your behalf will be limited to the work described in the above engagement letter. Because we may represent clients in business and litigation matters where you or your firm represents a party with interests adverse to those of our other clients, the potential exists that actions taken by Fennemore on behalf of its clients could directly or indirectly impact you and your firm. Examples are claims of conflict of interest, requests for discovery sanctions, and objections to fee applications. Accordingly, our representation of you and your firm is with the understanding that you consent to any conflict of interest with respect to our representation of other clients with respect to such matters.

11. Renewals, Updates, and Other Filings. Unless otherwise specifically agreed upon in advance in writing, we do not undertake to complete or file any initial, annual, or other periodic report required by any governmental agency. Such reports include, without limitation, beneficial owner information reports required under federal law and annual information reports required under applicable state law. In addition we do not undertake to renew or maintain any water right or claim filings, well ownership filings, assured water supply approvals, mining claim filings, trademarks, trade names, patents, UCC financing statements, judgments or other filings unless (i) otherwise specifically agreed upon in writing, and (ii) we are currently representing you at the time such renewal is required. As a matter of courtesy only, we may from time to time voluntarily provide you with notices of future events or activity affecting your rights related to such filings or other documentation we have prepared, but any such notices shall not be regarded as evidence of an obligation to provide them to you or any assurance that such notices will be provided in the future.

12. Termination. Either of us may terminate the engagement at any time for any reason by written notice, subject on our part to applicable rules of professional conduct and our obligation Docusign Envelope ID: CEA5EE24- 09D9-4C52- 8733-6CAC68448443 City of Lake Elsinore

to give you reasonable notice to arrange for alternate representation. The engagement shall also terminate on the completion of our services hereunder. If we have been engaged in multiple matters, our relationship will also be considered terminated if no matters are pending and there have been no communications between us for three months or more, unless otherwise agreed to in writing. You will remain obligated to pay for fees and costs incurred prior to termination.

13. Post-Engagement Matters. Unless our engagement is by its nature a continuing one as when we are initially engaged to handle one of a series of separate matters that will be referred to us in connection with an ongoing project) or unless the engagement letter specifically reflects that our engagement is intended to continue beyond the current matter, our engagement will cease upon completion of the matter for which you have engaged us. Upon conclusion of the tasks we have been asked to perform in connection with this engagement, we will have no duty to inform you of future developments or changes in the law affecting any of your interests including your interests in the matter subject to this engagement. To the extent that we voluntarily provide you with newsletters, documents or information concerning such matters following the conclusion of this engagement, such provision shall be considered a matter of courtesy only and shall not be considered the fulfillment or basis of any duty or the re-establishment of any attorney-client relationship.

14. Retention and Destruction of Documents. Following the conclusion of this engagement, any otherwise nonpublic information you have supplied to us which is retained by us will be kept confidential in accordance with applicable rules of professional conduct. At your request, your papers, property and documents will be returned to you promptly. Our own files pertaining to the matter, which include, for example, Firm administrative records, time and expense reports, personnel and staffing materials, credit and accounting records, and internal lawyers’ work reports, prepared by or for the internal use of lawyers, will be retained by the Firm.

We may retain copies of any file papers returned to you. If you do not request the return of your records, your file and records may be destroyed following the period of time specified by our document retention/destruction policy. This period may vary depending on the nature of the engagement involved. In any event, all files may be destroyed seven years following the conclusion of the engagement.

15. Fee Arbitration. In the unlikely event of any dispute regarding the amount or payment of fees, we have the right to terminate our legal representation in this matter, subject to our obligation to give you reasonable notice to arrange for alternate representation. If such a dispute arises that cannot be resolved, you may elect to use any State Bar mandatory dispute resolution procedures that may apply.

If mandatory dispute resolution procedures regarding our fees or costs have been waived or exhausted, you and the Firm agree to submit the dispute to binding arbitration. In the unlikely Docusign Envelope ID: CEA5EE24- 09D9-4C52- 8733-6CAC68448443 City of Lake Elsinore

event a dispute is submitted to binding arbitration, there is no right to a trial by jury, and the arbitration’ s legal and factual determinations are generally not subject to appellate review. Such disputes shall be decided by a single neutral arbitrator who shall be a retired judge mutually acceptable to Client and the Firm or appointed by ADR Services, Inc. (“ADR”). Any other dispute arising out of or related to this agreement or our professional services will also be finally decided by a single neutral arbitrator who is an attorney or retired judge, mutually acceptable to the Parties or appointed by ADR. The Arbitration Rules of ADR will apply to any dispute for which the arbitrator is appointed by ADR. Arbitration shall be in accordance with the laws of the State of California, and any arbitral proceedings hereunder shall take place in California. By signing this Engagement Agreement, you are giving up your right to a trial by jury of the dispute.

We recommend that you discuss the advisability of arbitration with independent counsel or any of your other advisors and to ask any questions which you may have prior to signing this Engagement Agreement.

16. Mediation. As to any claim or dispute arising out of or connected with our services, other than a fee dispute covered by the preceding paragraph, we mutually agree to attempt in good faith to settle the dispute by non-binding mediation before commencing any legal action or other dispute resolution procedure.

17. Affiliations. Fennemore is a member of one or more networks of independent law firms, such as The Toledo Group, a national network of independent law firms that seeks to share experiences and best practices in law firm administration, management, technology and service.

Although a member of one or more such organizations, Fennemore is completely independent and does not have common operations, share fees or collaborate on a pre-arranged basis with other member firms. If collaboration with other independent members of organizations is appropriate to serve your needs, Fennemore will discuss the specific engagement with you.

18. Confidentiality. We will maintain all information regarding your representation confidential in accordance with applicable law and Rules of Professional Conduct. From time to time we may have discussions with other lawyers for the purpose of considering their employment by Fennemore, or law firms for the purpose of considering a potential combination with such law firms. During the course of those discussions it may be necessary to disclose your identity as a client or fee and billing information relating to our representation of you. Such disclosure shall be subject to a confidentiality agreement between us and such other lawyers or law firms, and you agree that we may disclose such limited information for these purposes.

19. Representation of Spouses. Spouses can have differing, and sometimes sharply conflicting, interests and objectives regarding matters such as estate plans. If each spouse had their own separate attorney, each would have an “ advocate” for their position and each would receive totally independent and confidential advice from their own attorney. All information given Docusign Envelope ID: CEA5EE24- 09D9-4C52- 8733-6CAC68448443 City of Lake Elsinore

63643749. 2
to the separate attorney would be confidential, and none of that information could be disclosed to the other spouse without consent. This is not the case when one firm advises both spouses jointly.

If we represent both spouses, we cannot be an advocate for one against the other. Except in the event the Firm withdraws from the representation, information that either spouse gives to us cannot and will not be kept by us from the other spouse. If you have asked us to advise you jointly, our effort will be to assist you jointly and encourage the resolution of any differences of opinion or conflicting interests in an equitable and logical manner. As to those matters on which your individual interests may differ, we will attempt to explain to both of you the interests of each of you, and the effect on each of you of a particular course of action. a) If at any time during our representation of you either spouse wishes to retain separate counsel, the one desiring separate counsel may terminate our representation and we will be free to continue to represent the other spouse. However, we will be unable to continue to represent either spouse, without the consent of the other, in this or any substantially related matter in which your interests may be adverse.
b) If we conclude that a serious or potentially serious conflict of interest between the spouses has developed, or is likely to develop, and that we should therefore not continue to represent either spouse, we will promptly notify both of you that we can no longer continue to represent either of you. In that event we will not be obligated to disclose to either spouse the precise reason or reasons why we have concluded that we should discontinue the representation.

20. Representation of Employees and Employers. If we are representing both an employer and employee as joint clients, we have formed a judgment that employee’ s and employer’s interests are sufficiently aligned that no conflict of interest is presented by the joint representation. If we have required the employer and employee to sign the attached “ Conflicts of Interest/Consent and Waiver,” we have determined any existing conflict can be waived and you have consented to waive the conflict.
a) If employer has agreed to pay our fees and expenses for both employer and employee, employee consents to such payment by employer. We urge employee, however, to consult with another attorney of her or his choice about our representing both employee and employer. Either party has the right to discharge us at any time, for any reason. b) If we learn something from either employee or employer that is relevant and material to the other concerning this matter, each agrees that we will share such information with the other, even if it is something employee or employer would otherwise want to be kept secret. c) If at some point we believe a conflict exists or is likely to develop between employee and employer, employee agrees that we may withdraw from representing employee and Docusign Envelope ID: CEA5EE24- 09D9-4C52- 8733-6CAC68448443 City of Lake Elsinore

continue representing employer. Moreover, employee agrees that we will be permitted to use information gained from employee to defend employer, even if the information is something employee would want to be kept secret. Employee also agrees that we will be permitted to use this information if employee discharges us.

21. Representation of Insureds. If our representation of you arises out of a matter for which you have insurance, and your insurance company has agreed in writing with the Firm to pay our fees and costs, you consent to our representation of you in such matter notwithstanding the payment of some or all of our fees and costs by an insurance company. If we have agreed in writing to payment by an insurance company:
a) We have accordingly formed a judgment that such payment will not interfere with our independent professional judgment or our relationship with you, our client; b) Your insurance company must agree that it is not the Firm’s client and that the Firm may represent clients with interests adverse to it in unrelated matters, including litigation; and
c) Your insurance company consents to our right to confidentially advise you of the existence of any possible coverage dispute and of your right to consult with separate counsel with respect to that dispute.
d) As provided below, information relating to your representation will be kept confidential unless you consent to its disclosure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this matter is covered by insurance in whole or in part, you agree that we may:
i) share with your insurance company this Engagement Agreement and the Terms and Conditions of our engagement by you, or by your insurance company on your behalf; and
ii) share certain information regarding this matter with, and provide periodic reports to, your insurance company, and comply with guidelines issued by your insurance company to counsel retained on behalf of insureds that are not inconsistent with this Engagement Agreement or the Rules of Professional Conduct.
iii) Our duties run primarily to you, the insured. As indicated in paragraph 3 above, we shall advise you of the existence of a possible coverage dispute and that you may want to consult with separate counsel with respect to that dispute. If a coverage dispute should develop, we will not represent you or your insurance company in such dispute.

22. Artificial Intelligence. We anticipate that during the course of this engagement, the firm will use generative artificial intelligence (“GenAI”) to enhance and streamline certain aspects of our services. Like any technology, GenAI carries some degree of risk, which may include risk of errors in GenAI-generated content, data security vulnerabilities and system malfunctions. We have implemented reasonable measures to safeguard against these risks and our lawyers maintain oversight of GenAI-generated outputs. Accordingly, we believe and you agree that the benefits of using this technology outweigh the related risks, and you consent to use of this technology.

23. Storage and Use of Electronic Data. You are aware of and consent to the retention, maintenance, and storage of your information and records relating to this matter in the following forms and locations: paper (in office and/or storage files); electronic ( e.g., computer, handheld devices for email, fax, and via the Internet using cloud storage); or other like media. Unfortunately, email, cellular phones, text messaging, cloud-based storage, and other forms of electronic communication and data storage (collectively, “Electronic Communication”) are not completely secure. If there are certain documents or information with respect to which you desire to maintain absolute confidentiality, you must instruct the Firm in writing not to transmit or store such documents or information using standard modes of Electronic Communication so that the Firm can take appropriate actions to comply with your request. In the absence of such instructions, you acknowledge that the Firm will use Electronic Communication in its efforts to provide efficient and effective representation, and you authorize the Firm to use Electronic Communication in connection with the Firm’ s representation of Client.

24. Governing Law/Venue. Any claim or dispute arising out of or connected with our services shall be governed by the laws of the State of California. Any lawsuit relating in any way to our services shall be instituted only in the state or federal courts of the State of California. You consent to and agrees to the jurisdiction of such state and federal courts located in the State of California.

25. GDPR. You will provide us with notice if you are a resident of any member of the European Union (“ EU”) or if, during the course of our representation, we will be provided with any Personal Data, as defined by the EU’ s General Data Protection Regulation (“ GDPR”), of any resident of a member of the EU. If you are a resident of a member of the EU, you hereby consent to the Firm’s Processing, as defined by the GDPR, your Personal Data to the extent necessary to provide services to you and in accordance with these Terms of Engagement.

We are pleased to represent you and we look forward to a mutually satisfying relationship.

Again, if at any time you have a question or concern, please feel free to bring it to the attention of the attorney or attorneys responsible for your representation at Fennemore. 63046769. 1/099509. 0001

How you must inform us of your decision to receive future notices and disclosure in paper format and withdraw your consent to receive notices and disclosures electronically is described below.

Consequences of changing your mind
If you elect to receive required notices and disclosures only in paper format, it will slow the speed at which we can complete certain steps in transactions with you and delivering services to you because we will need first to send the required notices or disclosures to you in paper format, and then wait until we receive back from you your acknowledgment of your receipt of such paper notices or disclosures. To indicate to us that you are changing your mind, you must withdraw your consent using the DocuSign ‘Withdraw Consent’ form on the signing page of a DocuSign envelope instead of signing it. This will indicate to us that you have withdrawn your consent to receive required notices and disclosures electronically from us and you will no longer be able to use the DocuSign system to receive required notices and consents electronically from us or to sign electronically documents from us.

REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Jason Simpson, City Manager
Prepared by: Beau Davis, Acting Recreation Director
Date: September 8, 2026
Subject: Road Closures for Civic Center Grand Opening.

Recommendation
Approve temporary road closures for the Civic Center Grand Opening on October 1, 2026, as identified in the attached traffic plans, and allow for changes as necessary and approved by the City Engineer.

Background
On Thursday, October 1, 2026, the City of Lake Elsinore will celebrate the Grand Opening of its new Civic Center at 130 S. Main Street with a public ribbon cutting and community celebration.

The ribbon cutting ceremony is scheduled for 4:00 p.m., with free parking and shuttle service provided from 184 S. Main Street to the Civic Center.

The Civic Center represents a long-term investment in the community's future, consolidating City services under one roof to create a "one stop shop" that delivers a more efficient, customerfocused experience for residents, businesses, developers, and investors. The facility is designed to improve collaboration among City departments by streamlining development review, permitting, business assistance, and public services; reducing processing times, increasing responsiveness, and creating a more seamless experience for those looking to live, work, invest, and do business in Lake Elsinore. As one of Southern California's fastest-growing communities, the facility also provides the capacity and infrastructure necessary to serve the City's future population buildout while maintaining exceptional customer service and operational excellence.

The Civic Center's location within Historic Downtown reinforces the City's commitment to revitalizing Main Street and strengthening the heart of the community. Increased daily activity from City employees, residents, visitors, and business partners is expected to provide meaningful support to downtown restaurants, retailers, and local businesses while creating new opportunities for private investment. The project serves as a catalyst project within the City's Dream Extreme (Subject Matter 1- 4 words only. Do Not add date or page numbering)

2040 Vision, helping activate Downtown Main Street as a vibrant civic, commercial, and cultural destination and advancing the City's long-term strategy to create a walkable, thriving downtown.

Given the anticipated attendance of City officials, community leaders, local businesses, and residents, and the pedestrian-oriented nature of the celebration, staff has determined that temporary street closures are necessary to safely accommodate the grand opening.

Discussion
To provide a safe, contiguous event footprint and to separate event attendees from vehicular traffic, staff recommends the following temporary closures on Thursday, October 1, 2026, from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.:

Graham Avenue — from the alley east of Main Street to the alley west of Main Street.

Main Street — from Sulphur Street to Peck Street.

The proposed closure window provides approximately one hour for final staging, sound checks, seating, and safety inspections prior to the 4:00 p.m. ribbon cutting, accommodates the ceremony and subsequent facility tours and community celebration, and allows sufficient time for orderly dispersal, breakdown, and reopening of the roadway to normal traffic operations by 6:00 p.m.

Public Works will implement the traffic control plan in accordance with the engineering plan provided. On-street parking within the closure limits will be temporarily posted as "No Parking — Tow Away" a minimum of 72 hours in advance in accordance with Vehicle Code requirements.

Access to private driveways, alleys, and loading areas within the closure limits will be preserved to the maximum extent feasible, and staff will coordinate directly with affected property owners on an as needed basis.

Fiscal Impact
Costs for staffing the road closures are budgeted in FY 2026/2027.

REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
From: Jason Simpson, City Manager
Prepared by: Damaris Abraham, Community Development Director Date: September 8, 2026
Subject: Update on Notice of Violation for Code Enforcement Case No. 26-447 for Super Star Car Wash Located at 29150 Central Avenue
Recommendation
Receive a staff report, take public comments, and provide staff with further direction on the matter.

Background
On April 25, 2023, the City Council approved a new commercial development known as Evergreen Commercial (PA-2021-34) located on an 8.86-acre site along Central Avenue/State Route 74 east of the intersection with Cambern Avenue. The approval was for an approximately 57,000 square-foot commercial center consisting of an anchor grocery store, several quick-serve restaurants, a gas station with convenience store, and a drive-through car wash. In conjunction with the project’s entitlement approvals, the City Council also adopted a Mitigated Negative Declaration (State Clearinghouse No. 2022090133).

Since then, the commercial development has been under construction with several of the project components fully operational including the gas station with convenience store (7 Eleven), one quick-serve restaurant (Pollo Campero), one quick-serve coffee shop (Dutch Bros Coffee), and the drive-through car wash (Super Star).

Super Star Car Wash Noise Complaint
In late June 2026, a resident residing in the directly adjacent residential neighborhood along Allan Street expressed to staff his and his neighbors’ concern with the operational noise generated from the new Super Star Car Wash.

The resident provided staff with a petition from the neighborhood regarding the “...excessive noise generated by the Super Star...” which the residents expressed as “constant and disruptive noise from the car wash blower and drying systems.” Refer to Attachment 2 for a copy of the petition.

Super Star Noise NOV

Discussion
Upon receiving the residents’ noise complaint as well as petition, Planning Division staff reviewed the project’s original approval including the Conditions of Approval (Attachment 3) as well as conducted a site visit with Code Enforcement to investigate further.

At the site visit on June 30, 2026, Code Enforcement took noise measurements near the end of the car wash tunnel as well as from the residences on Allan Street. The noise level at the end of the car wash tunnel was well over 85 decibels (dBA) and was around 65 dBA along Allan Street.

Both noise levels exceeded the maximum allowed per the City’s Noise Ordinance contained in Lake Elsinore Municipal Code Section 17.176. The maximum noise level allowed on a boundary between two different zones is 56 dBA and within a Single-Family Residential land use is 50 dBA.

As such, a Notice of Violation (NOV) was issued by Code Enforcement on that day (Attachment 1). The resident was informed by staff that a NOV was issued to Super Star.

On July 2, 2026, a law firm (Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck, LLP) representing Super Star Car Wash contacted staff regarding the NOV to discuss the issue as well as work with staff to find solutions. Planning Division staff met virtually with Super Star’s attorney, Super Star’s Chief Development Officer, representatives from Evergreen Commercial, and Super Star’s noise consultants from MD Acoustics. Super Star shared their plan of action to find appropriate solutions to resolve the matter which included additional noise measurements by MD Acoustics, adjusting and/or relocating the blowers, installing sound dampening measurements, replacing the blowers with an entirely different system that produces less noise, or other recommendations based on MD Acoustics’ analysis and findings.

Since then, MD Acoustics has conducted at least three separate field surveys on July 14, July 22, and July 27 as well as engaged directly with the resident who originally brought the noise complaint to staff’s attention including taking noise measurements from his backyard. Figure 1 below is an exhibit which shows some of the noise measurement locations taken by MD Acoustics. Staff anticipate receiving a final report from MD Acoustics with their findings and recommendations based on their field surveys. Super Star and Planning Division staff have continually met to discuss progress and next steps to resolve the NOV promptly. Staff have also continued to keep the resident informed with updates.

Super Star Noise NOV

Figure 1. Noise Measurement Locations
Note from MD Acoustics: Before/After – Measurements are taken before and after flipping blowers and reducing exit height. Blowers on constantly to filter for construction and roadway noise. Code is 50 dBA at yellow pins and 56 dBA at red pins.

Actions taken by Super Star to address the car wash’s NOV has included adjusting and relocating all the blowers so that they are facing more inwards and lowering the bay doors to reduce noise “spillover.” However, in communicating with the resident, they informed staff that the noise is still audible and persistent for the neighborhood but acknowledged that the noise level was less than previously. Staff requested Super Star to replace the blower with a quieter system, install sound dampening measures, or both. Super Star has placed orders for the new blower system and Acoustiblok sound dampening material but has not been able to provide staff with a definitive timeline since these items are on backorder.

Fiscal Impact
There is no fiscal impact since the item is for discussion purposes.
